Lyn Webster Wilde
I am a published writer, of both fiction and non-fiction and have been teaching creative writing for six years. My books include 'Becoming the Enchanter', about my adventures investigating a mysterious British myth, and 'On the Trail of the Women Warriors', which tells of my search for the truth about the warrior women. I teach for the Open University and also run my own day and weekend workshops for all sorts of people, from ten years olds who want to know about myths and legends to serious writers who want to improve and explore. I also offer workshops on dreaming and writing and on myth.
The other side of my life is my deep enthusiasm for Tai Chi. I have been studying and practising it for 8 years and teach classes locally in Powys, for beginners and improvers.

Writing and Silence
We will be alternating periods of stillness, silence and contemplation with sessions of creative activity – but there will be no analysis! It’s a chance to calm down and listen to the still, small voice. Cost: £25. Bring something for lunch. Tea, coffee and cake provided.
Tuesday 31 July – Thursday 2 August at Ton Farm
A Lammas Writing Retreat
We’ll be celebrating this fruitful time of year with three very different days of writing activity, refreshed by Val’s famous lunches in her handsome barn just outside Hay. Specially recommended if you are stuck, discouraged or bored, but open to anyone, whether new to writing or already on the way. Cost: £150 including lunch and refreshments. See http://www.thetonfarm.com/art-space/ for details. Contact Val directly on to book.
Saturday 15 September at Brechfa
The Bardic Roots of Writing – Part 2
You don’t have to have attended the first Bardic workshop to enjoy this one, but once again the emphasis will be on the sound, rhythm and magical power of words and cadences. Cost: £35. Bring something for lunch. Tea, coffee and cake provided
Tai Chi for Beginner and Improvers
I teach the Yang Classical Long Form to beginners and improvers. We also do a good warm-up and some Chi Gung exercises. It takes from a year to learn the form, and then we also practise push-hands.
